Official synopsis Publisher
Boys, basketball, barf — the pefect middle grade novel! Nick wants to convince the coach that he’s a point guard, get rid of Dwayne-the-dork, and stop missing his mother. But that’s tough to do when he can’t keep the ball way from Carson Jones, the dork is his stepbrother, the honor code’s a joke, and he’s been splattered with something worse-smelling than ham.
